  • Questions about cleaning the battery poles and corrosion

    I would like to ask a few questions about the poles of a car battery 1) If the battery terminals turn greyishly black, then this is corrosion, which results in higher resistance and therefore worse starting? The surface has formed between the round terminals and the battery poles. It is not crystals, as one can find of corroded batteries on photos in the net, only such a dark surface. If one cleans this surface away and the battery again on the round terminals h 2) I cleaned the battery pole and round terminal inside as follows: * wiped off with brake cleaner on toilet paper * clean clean with steel wool * sprayed with contact 60 and wiped off * sprayed with contact WL and wiped off * sprayed with contact 61 and wiped off * glued round terminal onto the battery pole and screwed on * sprayed on battery pole grease (not between round terminal and pole, only from outside) Is this ok? 3) Battery pole spray t not before connecting between pole and terminal, but only after connecting, because probably not electrically conductive? I specifically used the blue can of Caramba. Battery is Exide, normal wet 12V.

  • Manufacture of interior cladding

    Moin together, next construction site. The door panel of the driver’s door dissolves so slowly. The material is a kind of insulation board. This is now soft and shabby, the corners are sometimes no longer available and the fastening nipples are torn out. From the chrome strip down it is really gammelig. For repair I have thought of three different possibilities. 1. Glue with a mixture of wallpaper paste and Ponal wood glue. The secret recipe from my teaching as Schaufenstem a) Punch in, pull in and let dry several times from the inside with the stuff, so that it becomes stable again. To hold the shape, you have to fix with plastic foil, two wooden plates and screw clamps. b) Do not mix missing parts with several layers of paper generously overlapped. Also fix here. c) Cut the overhanging corners suitable after drying and cut holes for the plastic nipples. 2. GRP, the hardcore a) The part completely from the inside with fluüssi (c) After drying, cut and drill holes for the nipples. To protect the leather or spray with silicone spray. 3. Rebuild plywood cladding. This can only be done with straight spots, such as the bottom part from chrome strip. Armrest and handle groove are OK. (a) Place and mark cladding on plywood, saw out b) With polyester and S Toffbahnen connect the transition between the original part and the replica. Which of the three possibilities is useful here? Or is there something else? After that the decoration comes with a new carpet. Whether I should stick it again in the original green or rather match the car in red I don’t know yet. Greeting Achim

  • Mustang 5 (V8) Error code: Injection valve Cylinder 4

    Hi guys, my Coyote (BJ 2014) has been suffering a little for over a year. The following problem: Every few months I have the problem that the engine control lights are concerned for a few days or weeks. When I start the engine, it runs noticeably round during the first (approx.) 5 minutes and is much more prone to swabbing. As soon as it is reasonably warm, the problem disappears. When reading out the engine control unit, the following result always comes: Error code P0204 – Injectionve ntil (cylinder 4) – static. But the strange thing is that this phenomenon did not occur once this year for almost 6 months at a time. Now I have it almost daily for about 3 weeks. My workshop, of course, as the first solution, had to exchange the injection valve/nozzle. The whole is supposed to cost 225 euros (125 euros for the valve). The price seems fair, but maybe that’s not the problem. The master had also offered me that I spontaneously before However, the way to the workshop is longer than 5 minutes, so that the error would have disappeared again; possibly until the next day or significantly longer. My question: Does anyone know these symptoms and/or has an idea where the actual cause might lie? (Not that it is on the engine control unit or anything else and I had a new injection valve installed completely for free). EDIT: Vlt still relevant: a few months e before the first occurrence of the problem I had a gas plant installed, because I drive about 35k km per year. While the problem occurs acutely, sometimes the gas plant also refuses its service.

  • Extinguish the type-approval in spite of the component with an E-number?

    Hello, I get my new motorcycle this month. Since the motorcycle is still relatively new, there are not a lot of accessories, especially not in the exhaust area. Now a manufacturer has an exhaust available, which is equipped with E-number. On the EC-BE service card, which is always sent with this, is also noted my motorcycle, among some others, but without year of construction specification. Now my question: Can the type approval of my motorcycle expire if I have this type of motorcycle The problem: this exhaust “deactivates” the standard exhaust flap, which all motorcycles with Euro4 standard have installed. The exhaust flap sits in the tailpiece just before the exhaust and is removed without replacement when changing the exhaust.

  • Value of a threaded cutting set (Company Narex, Whitworth thread)

    Hello! I have two complete, 28 pcs. threaded cutting sets, the brand Narex, manufactured in Czechoslovakia. I would like to sell these two, but I don’t know at all what value they have (see picture). They should probably be used among other things for (possibly older) mainly British cars. Can someone tell me what such a threaded cutting set is worth, or to whom I can turn? The Internet has not been helpful so far and also Rolls Royce un d a vintage car workshop could not help me any more. Thank you! 🙂

  • Autofinance guarantee from UG zur GmbH

    Hello! The following problem I am self-employed and run an UG. I have contacted a BMW branch office and made a financing request for a car. I was informed that this would not be possible without a guarantee. However, I need a car very quickly and would also like to finance one. I intend to convert the company into a GmbH if everything is going well but that will take about 4 months. I talked to my girlfriend and she has been there for r decided to enter into the guarantee. Now to my question. Is it easier to finance a car with a GmbH without guarantors? If this should be the case, can one terminate the guarantee after founding a GmbH?

  • MI Autoglas Service 24, who knows the service provider?

    Good day together! I had my windshield repaired in a parking lot from a shopping center, i.e. stone strike removal. It seemed rather strange to me but what should it happen and at least I wasn’t the only one. Data passed, went shopping, when I was at the car, everything was done. Five stone impact points were removed and entered into such a damage record or only three. I asked the guy again how it would be ft etc. He says from Teilkasko the damage is taken over by the insurance and without SB and I do not need to worry about anything. Today I got a letter from my insurance, quote letter: Dear Mr. XXXX, unfortunately we can not refund the repair costs, because the sum falls under the agreed self participation. Quotation end. Shortly after I read the letter and called my insurance, I called the operator of this company and he confirmed But it wouldn’t be a problem, he would bear the costs. Now the questions to you; – did I have been pulled over the table? – is that because of the insurance? – does someone know the operator/the company? – did someone also have the same/similar experience? Would I be happy for any answer. Greetings WAF

  • Tüv / HU / rust / rusted / screwdriver / can he do that? /

    Hello, I was yesterday to the hu/au examination, the tüv examiner has criticized, that the swarm has rusted through. Now my question: What you see on the pictures, had the same color as the car before the examination, the examiner is allowed to poking around and force a hole there (I was not in the workshop during the examination, so I can not even say if he used only a screwdriver for this).
